The Official Press Behaviour with Respect to Suarez Government during the Legislative Elections in June 1977
Abstract
The Spanish official press had an heterogeneous behaviour with respect to Suárez Government during the legislative elections in 1977. This is the hypothesis from which this study parts and which, through content analysis, studies the conduct of opinion texts published in the official newspapers between 8th and 18th June 1977, and which shows off that the official press abandoned its propaganda function at this time taking different positions with respect to the governmental management, some of them critical, and assuming, in this sense, its role as a political agent.Downloads
